We've just announced that MTV Live Lockdown is hitting the road and we're bringing Example, Sigma and Slaves along with us for an awesome evening of live music, held in a secret Glasgow location on 30th September.

With two huge Top 5 albums, seven Top 10 singles and two No.1’s in the UK alone, Example is renowned for being King of the club anthems with his monstrous live sets. After a busy summer juggling festivals, numerous bookings in Ibiza, a residency in Mallorca, and penning his sixth album, lucky ticket holders will get to hear a plethora of his hits including his new single, 'Whisky Story'.

Example said: “I am just excited to get out on that stage, I love performing, that’s what it’s all about for me, so I’m looking forward to sharing my tracks with the Glasgow audience and seeing their reaction at MTV Live Lockdown.”

Let's stay up all nightDrinking whisky, telling storiesI can keep you satisfiedLet's stay up all nightDrinking whisky, telling storiesI can keep you satisfiedLet's stay up all nightDrinking whisky, telling storiesI can keep you satisfied

Who is this staying over?I can't recall her nameShe lies there on the sofaEvery morning like LorraineHer waistline gets a rubWe trace our night of funThese constant slapped-at flashbacks of ourDate night down the pub

I hear somebody leaving, somebody heavingSomebody barely breathingIt's hard to remember where it descendedStarted as the quietest eveningI don't wanna live in this dramaI can't keep playing this gameBut the Friday night delights outweigh theSunday morning painLet's do it again

Let's stay up all nightDrinking whisky, telling storiesI can keep you satisfiedLet's stay up all nightDrinking whisky, telling storiesI can keep you satisfiedLet's stay up all nightDrinking whisky, telling storiesI can keep you satisfied (Here we go again)

She's still here staying overStill can't recall her name (Nah nah)She lies there on the sofaEvery morning like Lorraine (like Lorraine)We start to feel the love (the love)Another little night of funThese constant slapped-at flashbacks of ourDate night down the pub

The girl is attached so I'm heading out the back doorPass a blow with the smokes and slack-jawSo fit they think she's an actor(What is her name, what is her name?)Hop on that train it's the weekend sargensShould've stopped cos we gone too far nowDon't stop cos we gone too far nowCan't stop, yeah we gone too far now(One more time, let's go)

Yo, stepped in the bar, purchased a beverageIn the morning, sure, a brain haemorrhageShot of tequila, so the vodkaGot a couple ladies on my radarUsed to be rucks down the OceaniaThen we did pub calls, calls for lavaNow we stay awake, trying to make hearts raceIn the whole blimmin' scene, man yana

I can keep you satisfiedI can keep you satisfiedI can keep you satisfied(Give it to me one more time)I can keep you satisfied

Let's stay up all nightDrinking whisky, telling storiesI can keep you satisfiedLet's stay up all nightDrinking whisky, telling storiesI can keep you satisfied

Also performing at the hotly anticipated MTV Live Lockdown are Sigma, who have recently announced details of their new single, ‘Redemption.’ Sigma were the only group in 2014 to have back-to-back No.1 singles in the form of 'Nobody To Love' and 'Changing' (Ft. Paloma Faith), with both shifting over 100,000 copies in their first week. Sigma have now sold over 2 million singles worldwide in just over a year and gone platinum, twice, in the UK. With this in mind, Sigma are no strangers to setting the crowd on fire!

Cam and Joe said: “We can't wait to perform at MTV Live Lockdown! We're really looking forward to seeing Slaves do their thing and catching up with our mate Example. The crowds are always mental in Scotland and we're sure Glasgow will live up to this!"

Standing here in the music hallWith my microphone and a glitterballAnd you walked right in, blowing through the doorsLike a force of nature, a force of natureI cannot go, 'cause my head's a messBut you're beautiful in the way you dressI'm lost for words and I'm powerlessRight from the beginningYou got me singing oohSinging oohSinging oohSinging, ohI'm so in love with youSinging, oohSinging, oohSinging ohI'm so in love with youI'm so in love with youI thought I lost you in the crowdBut how can I when you stand outYou're like the storm through the evening rageThe bells are ringingYou got me singing oohSinging oohSinging oohSinging, ohI'm so in love with youSinging, oohSinging, oohSinging ohI'm so in love with youAnd I feel loveDo you feel love?And I feel loveI won't cut ice for you, for youJust look and see it's true, it's trueSo tell me what to do, to doDon't wait too longI cannot go, 'cause my head's a messBut you're beautiful, in the way you dressI'm lost for words, and I'm powerlessRight from the beginningYou got me singing oohSinging oohSinging oohSinging, ohI'm so in love with you ohOh, I'm so in loveI'm so in love with youAnd I feel loveDo you feel love?And I feel loveAnd I feel loveDo you feel love?And I feel love

Completing the stellar line-up are Slaves, one of the most acclaimed live bands of the moment. Their debut album, Are You Satisfied? crashed into the top ten album chart in June and since then the boys have completed their first sold out headline tour of the country, played a string of acclaimed radio sessions, performed three slots at Glastonbury, were awarded the Spirit of Punk award by Kerrang! Magazine and recently supported the Libertines at Ibiza Rocks' 10th anniversary.

Excited to perform at MTV Live Lockdown, they said: “We're looking forward to this gig. Glasgow is a great place to play. Get ready for a big party!"

About Glasgow

There is always something going on in Scotland's largest city. Amazing shopping, top visitor attractions, legendary nightlife, friendly people and an inimitable sense of style and fun, you are sure to have a memorable experience in Glasgow. But don’t just take our word for it. Check out what some of the world’s leading newspapers and travel publications are saying about Glasgow.

Cool Quarters

One of the best ways to experience the city’s diversity is through its different neighbourhoods. Much like New York, away from Glasgow’s city centre nestle a number of vibrant local areas off the beaten track where visitors can live like a local.

From the fashionable West End to the leafy Southside, from achingly cool Finnieston to the historical Merchant City, Glasgow’s neighbourhoods are a great way of getting under the skin of the city and discovering your own hidden gems on the way.

Shopping in style

As the largest retail centre in the UK outside London, you'll love what's on offer. In the heart of the city is the Style Mile, jammed with a selection of high street and designer favourites. If you are looking for something a little quirky head to the Merchant City and West End districts where you will uncover some amazing vintage stores, chic boutiques and weekend craft markets.

City of music

As a UNESCO City of Music and, according to Time Magazine, 'Europe's secret capital of music' Glasgow hosts over 130 concerts a week in a range of legendary venues. Glasgow, or GTown as it’s affectionately known to music lovers, was recently voted as having the best venues in the UK to discover new music so take time to uncover the city's beat with this list of Music Must Do's.

World Class Museums and Galleries

Glasgow is home to world class museums and galleries, many of which are free to visit. A great way to explore the city is to hop on the sightseeing tour bus or the Subway.

Must-sees include the magnificent Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, iconic Riverside Museum and stunning Gallery of Modern Art. You can check out some of the hottest new cutting-edge talent at Trongate 103, the CCA and Tramway.

Nightlife

After a busy day of sightseeing and shopping you will be spoilt for choice with the city's eclectic selection of bars and restaurants. From traditional Scottish to Indian, sushi to tapas, whisky to cocktails, every taste is catered for. And if you still have plenty of energy to party, you can check out the city's buzzing nightlife - clubbing, comedy, music, theatre or film - the choice is yours.

About Scotland

Highland wildernesses; pristine beaches; swathes of forest; salmon rivers and ski slopes, which other countries can offer such variety in such close proximity? Cities like Glasgow and Edinburgh, boasting world-class restaurants, inspiring architecture and long and distinguished histories, are the perfect complement to our outstanding natural landscape. It really is little wonder CNN named Scotland as its top travel destination just two years ago.

Journey to the past…

From bustling cosmopolitan cities to fascinating historic locations - visitors to Scotland won’t have to travel far to come across our fascinating past. Just a short drive from Edinburgh and the castle which dominates the city skyline, is Abbotsford House, former home of legendary novelist Sir Walter Scott. Rosslyn Chapel, meanwhile, is just a short drive from Scotland’s capital.

Used as a location for the film The Da Vinci Code, it is rumoured to be the final resting place of the Holy Grail. Go further afield to visit other historic sites, such as Caerlaverock Castle in Dumfries & Galloway (the UK’s only triangular shaped castle); follow Scotland’s Castle Trail in Aberdeenshire; visit Glamis Castle in Angus; or take a trip to Orkney, home to the 5,000-year-old Skara Brae Prehistoric Village, one of six UNESCO world heritage sites you can discover in Scotland.

Great landscapes and breathtaking views…

Scotland is home to some of the most world’s most stunning scenery, which has inspired artists and poets, as well as featuring in blockbuster films. Visitors can travel to the Falls of Lora at the end of Loch Etive, close to where filmmakers shot scenes for the James Bond movie, Skyfall, at Glen Etive.

Why not journey to the remote island of St Kilda, a National Nature Reserve or, back on the mainland, take the Pass of the Castle (Bealach na Ba), explore in the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park and gaze in awe at Glenfinnan Viaduct, a key location during the filming of the Harry Potter movie series.

The perfect stage for events…

2014 was an outstanding year for Scottish event’s industry from Opening and Closing Ceremonies, Culture 2014 and Festival 2014 which played a massive part in the lead up to and success of the Games to the Launch of the Kelpies, Bannockburn Live, Forth Bridges Festival, GENERATION and MTV EMA 2014 to name a few.

One of the key cultural highlights for this year is the Turner Prize which comes to Scotland for the first time ever. This year’s the exhibition will be held at Glasgow’s Tramway from October until January 2016 and is free to the public.

A taste of Scotland…

It’s not just the sights and sounds that need to be experienced on a trip to Scotland, but also the unique tastes. Scotland is renowned for its fresh produce, unique whisky and natural larder and in this, the Year of Food & Drink, there has never been a better time to sample it all. From Michelin-starred restaurants in Leith, to enjoying fish & chips at Crail Harbour, each meal eaten in Scotland is unique and memorable.

Visitors can also get a taste for the ‘water of life’ at one of Islay’s many distilleries or on the world-famous Malt Whisky Trail through Speyside. Perhaps combine a ‘wee dram’ with haggis, neeps and tatties, especially on Burns Night! Next year, Scotland will be celebrating the Year of Architecture, Innovation and Design, looking at our many achievements from cutting-edge technology to textiles.
